Here is what I have been using at every annual (14th coming up soon):
Interior rod end bearings: LPS2
Exterior Rod end bearings: bearing grease
piano hinges: LPS2
All landing gear joints (over center links, pivot points, spherical bearings: bearing grease
rudder cables: LPS2 (~every four years)
Interior of landing gear weldment: LPS3 - coats interior surface with a waxy barrier
Engine Controls: LPS1
Wheel bearings: moly bearing grease
Rudder hinge bearings: bearing grease
Propeller: Aeroshell 5 or 22 (don't recall without looking)
I am sure I am forgetting something....

Subject: [LML] Lubricating rod ends, Nose gear drag link etc.
Hi guys,
I’m starting final assembly of my 320. Are there any recommendations for grease or other lubricants for rod ends, bolts used as bearings, the nose gear drag link GM27, piano hinges, rudder cables, etc.? Also hydraulic fluid for brakes and landing gear.
Thanks in advance and regards,
Chris.
